I've loved Melanie from the start. The comparisons to younger Whitney and Mariah tell you this young woman is on her way. I love her appreciation. Unlike other contestants who are unable to keep the ego in check, Melanie is only now starting to let loose. I love her accent and think it's a shame she grew up feeling as if she didn't belong in either place. Now that she's shows what she's got, she will be welcomed and will belong anywhere life takes her!

Okay so what I hate about most of the singing reality shows is everyone has a sob story and I am really tired of hearing about them, just sing your song and get off the stage don't try and get votes for having the sadist story. Everyone has one but it is a singing competition not a sadist upbringing story.

Wow she was pathetic. She's dull, boring and typical! The cameras are always going to different angles. You never really see the contestant sing. You can't connect with anyone because you never see them long enough.

another blah bland safe warbler. No personality no originality. Really she's cruise ship material. I see no success chartwise. nada zilch fuck all. This is just the karaoke stage. In the real world these wannabes dont stand a chance because they have to find their own damn songs for a start!

Re: D-Bag – Not at all!!! Good vocalists are what they are, and America Can't blame our mess on singers…..her tone and pitch are often off, and her vocl range is incredibly limited.i am also tired of hearing the sob stories…..they all need to get over it…life gets tough….get over it.

Shane Redway -- a Canadian rapper and close friend of Drake's -- was killed early Saturday morning in a car crash. He was just 26 years old.

Redway and two others were killed when their car lost control, struck a guardrail and burst into flames. The crash occurred around 4am outside Pearson International Airport in Toronto. It's unclear who was behind the wheel. Police are investigating the crash.

Drake took to Instagram to remember Redway, posting two different tributes.
